I've been silent for a little bit. Not because I haven't thought of ways the Lord shows His love for me, but because I'm a full time nurse/full time student. My life consists of waking up, going to work, finishing work, doing school work, eating at least two meals somewhere in there, and sleeping.
Today I had a pure moment of understanding God's grace in my life. I have off today which means catching up on the little things that get missed throughout the week. I prepared dinner by first starting it on the stove which I had on low. I had put a pizza in the oven and when that was done I transferred dinner from the stove into the oven using my handy dandy pot holders. I then, naturally, laid them on the stove for when I needed them next and continued on with my day. I ate my pizza, took my dad somewhere. Before we left I checked the oven, I was smelling a very odd smell and thought it was the pan I used in the oven. Assured that it was fine we left and took about 45 minutes before returning home. The smell was much stronger so I again checked the oven. And then noticed the slight smoke arising from the stovetop. I had left the burner on low and was slowly roasting the potholder. I truly believe it is only by God's amazing grace that it didn't catch on fire while we were gone. For that I am ever grateful!
